Contract City Initial Contract and
Incorporation Dates
Purpose
The purpose of this bulletin is to provide information regarding the dates of city incorporation and initial law enforcement service contracts.
Introduction
The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department leads the nation in providing intergovernmental services on a contractual basis. The use of intergovernmental contracts in Los Angeles County dates back to 1954 when the City of Lakewood and the Sheriff’s Department entered into the very first agreement for one government entity to provide services to another independent governmental entity.
Over the years, contract services have been so successful that forty-two of the County’s eight-eight cities contract for municipal law enforcement services with the Sheriff’s Department.
Contract Law Enforcement Bureau periodically receives calls inquiring when a contract city first contracted, or the city’s date of incorporation. These charts list the Departments contract cities by order of initial contract date, in alphabetical order, and by order of incorporation.
